So right now I have a 1994 Civic EX (EJ1) with a JDM D15B SOHC VTEC. As is, the car is an Automatic, but I'd really like to get a manual tranny in there..just not any fun driving an auto. What tranny would I be looking for? I'm looking at doing a swap much later on, but I guess the swap will come with a new tranny anyways so why bother with a more expensive tranny..I heard something about an EX manual tranny, but I'm not sure where I could find one - maybe take a look at the junkyards.

So, what tranny should I be looking for, and when I get it, how would the install procedure be? Would it be overly complicated or a bolt-on kind of deal? I'm guessing changing the shift lever would require some kind of more meticulous labor..

Anyways, I'm completely new at this so any help is appreciated. Thanks
